The enlistment was to take place in September. The call was responded to. With -no preliminary train- ing the men were given orders and put into service. Four trenches lay before them. These must be taken or the glory of Cjof E. would be dimmed. o ' 1 . . ' They faced the task bravely. The sudden, swift' onslaught ofthe Sophs met with stubborn resistance and defeat., The Normal was de- feated at every point, and great was the 'celebration when K. S. N. hauled down her colors. But for the Sisters of Mercy many would have fallen. Their loyalty and unwavering support-was behind every effort of the men. Algebra and rhetoric bombs then thinned the ranks a lit- tle, but at last, amid great rejoicing, the first trench was taken. A num- ber were decorated with E's for distinguished service. The second trench was taken much as the first had been. V The men were seasoned veterans now, the Sisters well fitted to their role. The Freshmen were repulsed. The Normal, although victorious early in the season, was later defeated. A new Science Hall was provided as an arsenal. Amid great hilarity the second trench was taken, just one 1 91 ' -v-.- - year after the first. The Emperor awarded the decorations, and some of the Sisters secured recognition. Out to the third trench amid fire and destruction, banquet and an- nuals, insufficient quarters and scanty food, the struggle continued. De- feat was an unknown word. Victory came, although saddened by the loss of some of the company. ' The last trench in sight! That thought brings both joy and sorrow. Years of association and fighting shoulder to shoulder have formed firm friendships. Also, the ministration of the Sisters have cemented between the men and women, friendships-or are they more than friendships? The greatest battles have passed. The final victory is in sight! And when the Emperor musters the Seniors out, they will with one accord acclaim, Long Live C. of E. l Commercial Street, Looking North 20 Y ' r.f ,- MARGARET LINDSAYUQ---Q--- Emporia, NIABEL SMITH ........ ------t A.

I came back last fall, 1916, after having been away for several years, and it was like starting in new again except for several familiar faces in the faculty row. I entered the Junior Class, all of whom were strangers to me, but Marjorie Bright, you remember she was in Lewis Academy when we were Freshmen. I was not the only stranger in the class, though, for four others joined it at the same time. Harry Alex- ander and Rachel Wood, former C. of E. students, Electa Berger, from Park College, and Philip Ferguson helped to enlarge the Junior Class. It did not take long for us to get acquainted with the old students, for they were all jolly good friends to a stranger. This class has certainly been active in school aiairs all year. Davis Bovaird, our class president and treasurer of the Student Government Association, Philip Ferguson, Steve Hinshaw and Ralph Smalley were on the football team last fall, and all did good work. The class did not win either of the class scraps the first two years, but won the Freshman-Sophomore debate both years. The class scrap consists of a push ball contest and a tug-of-warn across the lake, in- stead of a flag scrap, as it used to be. This year we won the inter-class basket ball tournament. So you see we have both intellectual and physical abilities. Davis' Bovaird and Philip Ferguson didsplendid work on the basket ball team the past win- ter. 30 .. vw. William Cook, Lewis Irwin, William McAnlis and Ralph Smalley are on the' Men's Glee Club, and Freda Klein and Roma Prunty are on the Girls' Glee Club. Freda Klein receives a certificate in voice this year and Margery Wilson one in piano. Ernest Keller, business manager of College Life, is a prospective Rhodes scholar. - 'Six of our number, Margaret Cummings, Josephine Wilson, Lewis Irwin, William McAnlis, Electa Berger and Rachel Wood are volunteers for the foreign 'mission field. Josephine Wilson is presidentof the Y. W. C. A. for 1917 and 1918. The school was represented at Newton, March 2, in the Kansas Old Line Oratorical Contest by Frank Main. ' r We had a class party in November at the home of Shirley Thompson, and all of us that went had a delightful time. February 14 the Juniors and Seniors gave an all-school Valentine party in Mason Gymnasium. That was one of the best all-school parties of the year. J For the rest of the school year we busied ourselves with-the 1917 Allah Rah and the Junior-Senior banquet. A I know you are not acquainted with these people I have mentioned, but if you have heard anything at all from C. of E. or anything about it, during the last three years, some of the names will be familiar to you, just as the names of the old grads are familiar to us. I haven't time tonight to write you about all the other members of this class, but they are all active in some line of school affairs as Y. M. and Y.' W., Social Service, Debate, Prohibition League, Chorus, Opera, and dates, This year is almost gone and we are looking forward to a happy vaca- tion and then return next fall to take up our role as dignified Seniors, and this year will be only a sweetened memory then. Sincerely, -M. D. 31 i STEVE, FREDA, RACHEL, ROMA, SCOTTY The S. S.

Sophomore History Ours Was the largest class that ever entered the College of Emporia. As to ability, it fully kept pace with the number. Amos Curry, as president, and Helen McClain, as treasurer, in our Freshman year, helped the class along so well that We performed un- heard-of things. We came through the first year with cash to spare, showing one great asset, the possession of plenty of the filthy lucre. We Were able to defeat the lofty and air-lifting Sophs in the push-ball con- test-the first one ever held at the College. . In scholarship, We were a bit selfish, as some of our members ob- tained exceptionally high grades. We had a good debating team, com- posed of Harris Hilscher, Carl Moore and Donald White. We lost the Freshman-Sophomore debate, but placed Hilscher and Moore on one of the college teams. , Musically inclined, yes, and to a great extent. Seven of the eighteen members of the Girls' Glee Club were Freshmen. This year five of our number were on the Men?s Glee Club. In our Freshman year one was accompanist, and one made the trip to the coast. In athletics We did more than our share. Curry was the only new let- ter-man, but a star. Chilcott, Moore and Parrish made sub-letters. The track men obtained honorable mention. . We had more pretty girls and good-looking boys than any class. We excelled socially. The April Fool party was said to have been the best ever given. The class day stunt was above par, even by the Seniors. - . f .4w 1- - fi ,T i-i' -..-... M -- 4-1 'gs - ..-l -f- , -. I I r -. ' 43 .l.. This ended our year in C. of E. as wearers of the green It was de- spised because no other class had had the distinct honor of wearing green caps. Last fall we came back, Sophomores, sixty strong, and a picked bunch, still excelling in looks and number of dates per week, fire es- capes and basement doors assisting. The class scrap we lost, but it was necessary to take advantage of our decreased numbers by new rules. s 'With Helen Ott, as president, and Donald White, as treasurer, we had splendid oificers in charge. This was demonstrated by the Hal- lowe'en party, which was a success under their supervision. We easily won the Freshman-Sophomore debate with the same team that represented us in our Freshman year-Moore, White and Hilscher. Again these men made the College debating teams. The glee clubs were again unable to exist without our members, so the Sophs filled a number of places, as last year. Again we shine in athletics. Curry made an all-state team. Chil- cott also made a letter and there were several sub-letter men. The Sophs always live up to what the Seniors think of them in spring ath- letics. My space in this book is limited, otherwise I could write volumes and volumes on the achievements of this class. In conclusion, I add that the present Sophomore class entered the greatest in quantity, and in progressing, showed the greatest in quality, leaving many things so notable that they need not be written. -K.

The word Freshmen is always to begin with a capital and the word sophomore never.

The Freshman Class of this year was perhaps the greenest in the his- tory of this school and has developed, expanded, and magnanimitized until at the present writing the class is acknowledged to be the most ex- traordinary group which has ever started to make the College of Em- poria the supreme center of the magnet. When we went to enroll, we tip-toed up into a hall filled with girls who were busily engaged in embarrassing one another. We waited breathlessly for our turn. So this was to be the introduction to college life! We were beginning to like this school already. We waited in vain for our turn, but we weren't even noticed among the throng. Soon we were ushered into the presence of the greatest mathemati- cian of all times, Titus E. Mergendahl, M. S. and B. S., who proceeded to enroll us. u fl., ' V A f 5 qi 4 g Q.. -, . fi- - I - .... ilu ,- -:aff p - , - , .. - - -- ------' -'f ' -'- .. ,. :E 5: .-- Q . . - ' ii 2:32 ?,: ist., Z . . A . Eg: 1'- 12?

' We waited breathlessly for him to perform, but in vain, he toddled off With an expression of vacuity on his face, While We were left looking after, him, chagrined to the nth degree. The dire tales of the push-ball chaos and the green caps, homesick- ness andthe Way people stared at us made the days very dark and dull and dreary. 4 A D A In the class scrap Uwe- liketo ruined them Sophs, knocking many of them cold turkey in the early' stages of the fray. The fight was in- tense, and Victory would never- had fallen our Way had not We had the united support of the finest bunch of girls in Kansas today, the girls of the Freshman Class. After the battle came the caps. ' One Freshman, ' 4 9 l ' 4 ll il Lil , r I waxing very bold, came out from under the green and the paddles also came out from some unknown place. The bold Lochinvar, not in the least desiring to return to the good old nursery days, set out in a long gallop for the hills, and he had to be chased over three-fourths of Lyon County before he was finally brought to bay. The only result of the martyr's run was the stinging blow of the paddles. , Members of the Freshman Class formed the nucleus of the football team, and in the basket ball, inter-class, we completely demolished, san- guined and jeopardized the sophs. The only thing in the. world that kept us from winning the Freshman- Sophomore debate was the judges' decision. .Nearly half the number of members of the Glee'Clubs are Freshmen. As far as handsome men and classy-looking women are concerned, we're world beaters, as the upper classmen will grudgingly admit. VVe..have so come unto our own that we practically own C. of E., from the students' standpoint. We are the satisfaction of the teachers, the object of the upper classmen's envy, and the prince charming of every girl in school. A . ' Although we are the most wonderful class in the history of this col- lege, still we feel that it will only be with our most noble and untiring efforts that we will be able to keep up with the rapidly increasing standard of our Alma Mater as set forth by its faculty and former stu- dents. -D.

Part II-A three-quarter hour concert by the New York Symphony Orchestra, Wal- ter Damrosch, Conductor. On Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, similar programs were given at the State Nor- mal. The combination of the two festivals made this the biggest and best musical at- traction ever held in Emporia. - THE DAMRO SCH PLAYERS The Symphony Society, of New York, one of the world's greatest orchestras, has had a remarkable history. Nearly forty years old, it has had but two conductors, Dr. Leo- pold Damrosch, the founder, and his son, Walter Damrosch, the present conductor. Dr. Leopold Damrosch was a virtuoso-violinist, a composer and a conductor of Eu- ropean fameg but he was destined to find in the New World his field of widest activity. The Symphony Society was organized by him in 1878 for the purpose of rendering the best music according to the highest ideals. It took, immediately, a leading place in the musical life of New York, and it has held this place for nearly forty years. Walter Damrosch was 14 years old when the Symphony Society was founded. He was but 23 when he succeeded his father as conductor. He disappointed all those who thought he was unequal to the difficult task of directing an orchestra and leading men, by proving himself marvelously adapted and qualified for the work. He held his men together, he produced one intricate masterpiece after another, and he attracted a public of his own. Each succeeding year added a wider circle of admirers until now Mr. Damrosch's public is the entire United States. 4 If - ' f 'Ll-5 , A 5 ', ,J . fi- - I -' -- -.,.Vfl1l 77' Jfyf ag - ie v - .-I'-, .- ' '-' , V ' 4.

H-Rather let us believe that in some not far distant day the embryo of brotherly love and kindness, planted in the heart of man when he was given a soul, will find its triumph. Rather let us believe that before long the good men of all nations will awaken from their lethargy, and rise up to lift the thorny crown of intemperance and poverty from the brow of their oppressed. Rather let us believe that we shall soon learn to act, not as the representa- tives of the Texas town, and drive the fallen away in disgrace, but to act as the friend, the man who understood: Give him our coat to shield him, give him our love to cheer him, and live in the joy of his voluntary reform. ing is the triumph of Calvary.

M. C. A. The Y. M. C. A. of the College has for its ideal the all-round development of every man in school. This all-round development, according to Y. M. C. A. standards, in- cludes physical,Asocial, mental and spiritual life. The Association has done much practical work during the year. Commencing with helping the Freshmen to get located, they have been busy with such work all year. During the first week of school the stag party was given as usual for all the men of the school. Here the new men became. acquainted with one another and with the older students. Twice during the year the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. held joint receptions at the dormitory. 4 Regular weekly meetings were held at the first of the year in Mason Gymnasium and later in Missionary Hall, and very helpful meetings they have been, in which the prob- lems of the young men were discussed, spiritual truths presented, and the fellows given an opportunity to come in touch with the ideals of one another. Further opportunity has been given for Christian expression through the Y. M. C. A. Bible and Mission Study classes, held each Sunday morning. Six men, including the president and three cabinet members, were at Estes Park last summer, and all returned with one ideal: To make Jesus Christ more real in school life. Twice this number are expected to go to Estes this coming summer. Men who heard them will not forget the messages of Doctor Hall and Mr. Wiley, given this year, which have had evident influence in bettering this year's Y. M. C. A. T ' --C. P.

FE f 5: n ' - A A - El l .0 The Young VVomen's Christian Association is recognized by every one of us as apart of our College that could not be abandoned. This year the choice of the executive committee and the cabinet was unusually happy. Really representative girls were chosen, and they carried on their administration in a very all-round manner. S L, C One hundred and twelve of the College girls belong, and we can boast of an average attendance of sixty-five. Olive Cope, the devotion- al chairman, has given a variety and spontaniety in the choice of topics and leaders that has been very unusual. ' Our Big Sister movement, started this fall by Myra Wallace, was a great success. It was appreciated by both the big and little sis- ters. The Big Sister idea was continued in the Freshmen Council with Maude Calhoun as the leader. This Freshman Council has the distinc- tion of being the first in the United States, but Miss Slack, our iield sec- retary, assured us that it will not be the last. It is a training class in Y. W. C. A. history and in parliamentary drill. We have sent S43 and a great many comfy bags to the Prison Relief Fund. We have charge of four Bible and Mission Study classes. Miss Otis has charge of a very much alive '4Eight Weeks Club class. The College Y. W. C. A. had five girls last year who took part of their Col- lege knowledge home to their younger girl friends. This year the in- tentions are fine. The outlook for the new year is very bright. , --M. C. fl.. - ' 1 VI qi -A ..

Reporter ........-......-..---- JAMES MCKEE The Ministerial Guild is an organization consisting of the men of the College who are planning to spend their lives in the ministry. Its pur- pose is to promote the spiritual interests of the school not only by pre- paring its members for more active work when graduated, 'but to in- spire more consecrated service during college days. The latter purpose has been emphasized this year. The meetings be- gin with a devotional service, followed by papers on various topics of interest, such as great church men, sermons, reviews and study prob- lems. These meetings have meant much to the young men, because of the opportunity offered for the sharing of their sincere purposes and ideals, together with the splendid fellowship which has grown up in the guild, which has united the members in their desire to make themselves better students for a better C. of E. Only once has disaster overtaken the guild, and that was when Eric Edwards left the state of celibacy for wedded life. The Ministerial Guild extends its best wishes to him. Virgil Hurt left at Christmas to attend the Normal. The Guild regrets to lose such men. It also regrets to lose Seaman and Townley, who will be graduated this spring, but is glad such men can go from it to bless the world, and hopes many such will join them. -D, W, 8:2 iv- E '.....1 , Top Row: Mr. Roller, Cummings, Hilscher, J.

This organization is but three years old, but its membership islarge, and its activities comprehensive. Maurice Waugh represented the or- ganization in the state prohibition oratorical contest, at Baker, March 9. Vicenti Furbeyre accompanied Waugh, as a delegate to the pro- hibition convention, the following day. The League has regular month- ly meetings, at which different phases of the liquor problems are taken up. As a result, a more thorough and accurate knowledge of the booze situation is being fostered. --C- P. 8-S From Left to Right : Irwin, Seaman, J.

Student Volunteer Band The Student Volunteer Movement, an interdenominational move- ment, was organized in 1888 among the students in institutions of high- er learning in the United States and Canada, for the purpose of promot- ing the interests of Foreign Missions. Since that timeit has served as a basis of supply for the various missionary boards of North America. Up to 1916, these boards have sent out six thousand, four hundred ninety Volunteers to the foreign field. ' The State Convention, held in November, at Baldwin, was the best that has ever been held, both in point of numbers and in the 'spirit that overshadowed the convention. One hundred fifty delegates were ex- pected, but two hundred fifty-three came. Fifteen nationalities were represented by the leaders of the convention. There was not a delegate but went back with a broader view of the needs of the Foreign Field and with a more complete consecration to life service. The College of Emporia was represented by nine delegates, seven from the Band, and one each from the Y. W. C. A. and the Y. M. C. A. The influence of the State Convention has shown its effect upon the local Band-by a deeper interest in the weekly meetings. These meet- ings are alternately devotional and study, the latter being open to those students interested in the study of Missions. The texts used this year are, Living Christ for Latin America, by J. H. McLean, and Changing Chinese, by E. A. Ross. - si 1- 4 l , 1 P 1 r w I 3 5 3 5 e N ? 3 W 85 i It 3 The Social Service Club RACHEL Woon ..... - -....- President MARJORIE BRIGHT --.- ......---- V ice-President ESTHER JONES ..... .--.-..

I The Aletheans had their part to play in introducing the Freshmen in- to the mysteries and delights of college life. First came a dizzy round of get-acquainted parties that brought the momentous question, to be or not to be. After the decision, the victory was celebrated by the Seal Luncheon. Then came the dark ages of initiation! During the year there Were numerous hikes with our Brother Phils. The last event of the year will be the May morning breakfast for the seniors. -G. T. fl.. I .

Three oth- ers have left school. The places of'Captain Hughes, Bachman, Russel, H. Hinshaw and Jones will be hard to fill. But there is a wealth of ma- terial left around which next year's team will be built. The season started with a close victory over Fairmount. This game was featured by Bovaird's 80-yard run for the winning touchdown. The team showed flashes of the real stuff in all the games, but was unable to keep up the steady gait required for an all-victorious record. The best games were played against Fairmount, Washburn and the Normal. Smalley's long run in the Washburn game was one of the features of the season. In the game with the Normal the first genuine College light was shown for any considerable time. And there it lasted from the start to the final whistle. Although outweighed ten pounds to the man, and with two regulars out of the line-up with injuries, the team fought its heavier opponents to a standstill. ' It was in this game that Captain Bill Hughes made his memorable run of thirty yards after receiving a 30- yard pass, and thus ended his football career in a glaze of glory. Fer- guson's field goal was another feature of the game. On the whole, the College had a good, hard-fighting bunch of clean sportsmen representing it on the gridiron. They fought as C. of E. men have the name of fighting. They crossed their opponent's goal line more times than their line was crossed. They were outweighed in practically J 105 I I ,i every game they entered, but what they lacked in avordupois they made up in nerve. No opposing squad met the C. of E. players this year Without the privilege of feeling the joy that Warriors feel under the conditions that the poet named.

C. of E. loses one of her greatest gridiron stars when Hinch graduates this spring. V Charles Russel, Guard Fluff would deserve a letter for just keeping the team in good spirits, but outside of the amusement he afforded, he played some real, honest- to-goodness football. His opponents rarely appreciate his little jokes. He hit the line hard and kept on hitting it. Fluff, also, vvill Witness the College-Normal game from the sidelines next year. Davis Bovaird, End HBO made a good running mate for Captain Hughes, and caught his share of the passes. He Was in the game from Whistle to whistle, and always gave a good account of himself. Bovaird is fast on foot and a hard tackler. He has one more year to play. Ralph Smalley, Half Ralph was the spirit of fight personified. His specialty was broken field running, but he could also 'hit that line when occasion demanded 107 Auditorium at Soden's I v Soden's Park i 108 , . it. The opposing ends found-him a hard man to tackle. VVe are ex- pecting great things of Smalley in his next and last year of football for C. of E. Steve Hinshaw, Half Steve was one of the most consistent ground-gainers on the team, and made more touchdowns during the season than any other man on the team. Steve's specialty is a quick start that gives him two yards' start before he is located. He will make a great player next year. Amos Curry, Center ' A-A-Amos, our scrapping center, was a close candidate for the all- state job last fall. He weighs a little over ninety-eight thousand grams and puts every bit of his weight into the game. Amos keeps his old pepper up and his talk going all of the time. He has two more years to play. Ed Chilcott, Tackle Chilcott got off to a late start this season, but he played every minute of the game after he did get started. Quietness and a regular bulldog spirit characterized his playing. Ed has two more years to play. Lloyd Harr, Full-Half Rosy lived up to his high school reputation as a demon in football. He played equally well at half or full. Harr's wide end runs were the sensation of the season. Rosy was exceptionally strong on defense in backing up the line. We hope to see this Freshman back in a suit next fall. Ed Stephenson, Tackle - Steve plays football because he just naturally likes it. With a grin from ear to ear, he goes into a game with all he's got-and that's con- siderable. He was one of the three Freshmen to make a regular posi- tion. ' Harley Little, Quarter Little, another Freshman regular, capably filled the need for a good quarter. Although a new man, he had the confidence of his team- mates. Accurate passing and good headwork were his specialties. l 109 Y g 1 I 1 l I l l s 1 1 i i Verne Jones, Tackle d'Big.Un Jones staged a peach of a comeback after being out of the game for a season. On account of his leg being still weak from the break received at Fairmount two years ago, he did not play all of the time. But the game against the Normal, Thanksgiving, was sufficient to close his football career in a blaze of glory. ' A A George Bachman, Guard p 6'Josh played either guard or tackle, according to the need. He never lost his head in a game, but took it all as a matter of course. The oppos- ing fullback never came through Bachman's guard. The Normal game was his last for C. of E. HONORABLE MENTION Redf? Moore: Great utility man, who plays any position on the line. Bull Parish: Good tackle or fullback. Two touchdowns in Hays Normal game. lVIacElree: A Sophomore who will make a fast, hard-hitting back- lield man. Weidower: A Freshman, and the fastest man on the squad. Jesse will make them all hustle in the backfield next'-year. Chick Ferguson: Substitute quarter and half. Although a Junior, he is a new man at C. of E. His brilliant playing has given him a high place in the estimation of Emporia fans. Thomas: Although a Freshman and small of stature, he was a hust- ler for an end position. He will be missed next year. Welch: This midget Freshman is the essence of iight personified. Deadly tackler at his end position. ' Main: A tower of strength at guard position. Bad knee keeps him from playing regularly. I Hurt: One of the heaviest men on the squad. Plays guard.

WALTER TODD ---------------------- Fofrwcwd Todd was elected captain at Ottawa on the 1 evening of the opening game. He played an ex- cellent brand of basket ball all season.

Oliver, Lehman, Saunders. Second Row: Welch, P. Ferguson, Todd, H. Little. Basket Ball Season The season opened with three letter men back-Todd, Bachman and Bo. Many Freshmen and Ferguson, a new Junior, together with Lehman and Oliver, of last year's squad, were working hard for places. The first game was a fast one, played with and lost to Ottawa. A rough game was won from Baker the following night. Contrary to custom, the team did not play as well at home as when on the road. Southwestern defeated the College in a poorly played game on the home court, but the team evened things up by defeating Friends a few days later. Ottawa was victorious in a second game, and Fairmount was de- feated. Ill l e Harr, Rapp and Weidower were strong defensive men at guard, and will be excel- ! l 1 r l I 1 I l JH. Perhaps the best game of the year was the College-Normal game, which resulted in a victory for the Collegef This was the only defeat administered to the Normal during the season by any teifni. Here the old .College-Normal spirit broke loose, and a real game took place. The score was 25 to 20, in favor of C. of E. With Bachman absent from the line-up with an injured foot, the boys lost to Baker by two points. The Normal came back strong in the second game of the city series and got away with the long end of the score. The Hnal games of the season were played on a southern trip, where the team lost to Southwestern. The two last games were played with Friends and Fairmount, at Wichita, and resulted in a pair of vic- tories for C. of E. On the whole, the school has every reason to be satisfied with the results of the sea- son. The boys played hard, and put up a good fight in every game, with the possible exception of the first game with Southwestern. Bachman, Todd,FLehman and Oliverr- all of whom have been dependable men, will be missizdliiiidforniing as good a squad next year, but with Bovaird fighting as hard or harder than ever, with Ferguson, Weidower, Little and Welch, as well as several fast second team men, there is ,no reason to be pessi- mistic about the outlook for another year. 'i HONORABLE MENTION Gregory Oliver, forward, did not play quite enough to get his letter. He will be graduated this spring. He was an accurate shooter, and always played a hard, fast- game. Philip Ferguson, forward and center. This was Fergie's first year in the C. of E. camp, and he will make them all hustle for a regular position next year. He plays a good floor game, and is a sensational basket shooter. Harley Little, center. Peter is a Freshman, but he also is a basket ball player, in fact, there are few things in the athletic line he does not do. Football, basket ball, baseball, track-all look good to Peter lent material for filling up holes in next year's five.

Halstead Josh graduates this spring and has prob- ably played his last basket ball. He was a good de-fensive man and his opponent caged few baskets. Bachman had the happy way of throwing a goal whenever itwas needed most. EUGENE LEHMAN, Center Halstead Gene, though a' senior, played his first season this year as a regular member of the team. His playing would have been a credit to any four-year man. Lehman was always in the game for all he was worth, and was one of the mainstays in the defense that held the Normal to ten goals in two games. ' urs l 2 F i P 1 l 1 2 1 3 I 1 DAVIS BOVAIRD, Guard ..-...--- Independence Bo was the only man on the squad to play every minute of the game. He is a scrappy, heady player, hard to get by and a good floor man. He is a good basket-shooter and the hardest fighter on the team. Bo has another year. KENNETH WELCH, Forward ..------ Emporia Runt was the smallest basket-ball player in the conference, but his ability was just the reverse to his size. It took at least two men to keep the fast midget covered when he was on the floor. Kenny is an accurate basket shooter and ran Captain Todd a close race for high honors. He was the only Freshman to make the regulars. 117 I v v A l I Top Row: Scott, Fitts, Markley, Brown. Second Row: Oaks, Marshall, Hursch, Smith, Lake. Girls, Basket Ball This year the Collegemade its first attempt at public basket ball for the girls. On the whole, the season was very successful. The season's features were long shots by Miss Scott, good guarding by Captain Hursch, and the exceptional free throwing of Miss Markley. The girls were able to take a game from the Seneca High School, but lost two games to the more experienced players of the Normal. The Freshman girls' team won a game from the Sophomores in the early part of the season. llil I ' ' ' . .

But, along with other spring athletics, baseball was abandoned for military training. With Little and Jones to occupy the mound, and with Bingham and Welch behind the bat, there is little doubt that the team would have had a very successful season. Practice started off in good shape and new suits were ordered. Some class games were played later in the season, but owing to lack of prac- tice, they were not in a class with the brand of ball C. of E. usually plays. 1731 ., ,,,, A,,,.:1 U, -WR' A, -M ,1- 122 . i l 4 4' I l 1 l Top Row : Trusler, Bingham, Waugh, Randel, B.

Haynes, Markley Tennis Tennis is one of the favorite pastimes of the girls, as Well as of some of the boys. About any fine day in the spring or fall, the four courts are occupied with students seeking to forget studies for a While. No championship series was played this year, but the devotion to the courts brought out some strong players. The above picture was snapped one spring afternoon after the girls had been having a battle royal. During the cold Winter months the girls gave undivided attention to basket ball, but, with the Warm days of spring, this outdoor exercise found an easy preference. 1725 N i Lewis Hall of Science .4 i Bacteriologists in Action gi F: Era-fo 'Kr Q- ' g bl' Ili 1 N '.

Ye' haint? Well, I dunno as ye've missed much, 'ceptin' should ye be there on Thanksgiving Day, an' then, 'say-, Well, yer may hev heered as how theyse got big schools down there, where the fellers and gurls from purt nigh evry place come to git larnin'g gosh, but they no a lot down there. Why, some of the guys would make our teacher over't deestrict forty-seven look plum like a first grader. But you see the kids what goes to these schools don't like each other for shucks. The bunch what goes to the school they calls the Normal thinks that theyse got the best school, while the ones that goes to the place they calls the College lows as how it's the best. Them Normal guys thinks theyse the best cause theyse more of em, and the College fs-,llers thinks theyse got the quality. Theyse mor gurls at the Normal, but gosh durn me, they caint hold a durty lantern to I . I -N. I! 'I ICJ them College gurls when it comes to real class. But as I wuz sayin, these two larnin factories simply won't endur the other. Course the College fellers shines up to the Normal gurls wunce in no one if they goes down to see em, enyway they kin sots Normal than if they goes to the house where they keeps all But I haint cussin-I mean discussin the gurl question, bout Empory on Thanksgivin Day. Y'see, with these two they donit theyse got to have sum chanct to express it, an day mess comes in. That's the day when the love jus boils turrible. Course they caint call it a 'free-for-all scrap, an fight or they wouldn't be enybody left to do it next time. a while, but they never tell longer if they goes to the the College gurls at. but I started in to tell ye schools lovin each other as here's where the Turkey over an splatters things up they caint let ebery budy So they picks out a few of the Wurst roughnecks and leafs it to them. Why, I'm blasted if they don't even set you back a dollar to see the scrap! An then they sez that the guys aint fightin but that it's all a game an that theyse playin feetball. Well, take it from me if they'se playin, then teachin a six weeks old bull calf to drink sour milk is a rest cure for con- sumptives. Sherman never seed a feetball game or he would hev described war as flotin' thru the purly gates on floury beds of eze. Well, course I had to see the thing out an I staked the doorkeeper with a dollar an went insides. An say, ye aut to seen it! Ye recomember thos Sunday School cards that had those funny lookin guys racing in charyuts? An y'member all the pepul slopin up on one side and sum slopin up on the other side? Well, this yere scrappin place looked jes like as that. Gewhiliker, they musst hav been fifty thousand peepul there! On one side every one' had sum red and white on which ment they thot the College would win, an on the other side every one had yellow on, which showed that they cal- liated the Normal would win.

Each side had a band like they had over at the Elum County Fair, an they tried to keep the crowd quiet by playin eni musick, but it made em yell all the wurse. Well, they yelled back an forth till the guys what wuz to do the fightin got up enuf curage to come out. An say, you aut to've seen the way them guys wuz dressed. The College bunch had red close on and the Normal had yellar close on. I wouldn't a knowed which was which if I hadn't heered sum feller say the Normal wuz yellar. They all had the funniest little cages fur their heds you ever hurd uv. They wuz jes like shoes an made outen leather, but they wuz fixed to fit their heads. The idee wuz that they could stand on either end in the scrap. The Normal guys had theirs all purty an white, cause they reckoned as how they would allase be rite side up an never git there head shoes durty. Well, them fellers dodged each other round the pasture which wuz in between the two crowds of peepuls awhile, an then sum guy which seemed to be purty important like cum outin blew a little whistle, which meant that the game wuz about to begin. The two gangs lined up facin each other and strung out clean across the pasture. On wun side the guys wuz anxious to git at it an stood in a line close up to the middle. The folks on the other side wuz jes a little skeered to begin with an sum uv em stood up close kinder cocky-like atefirst an theh others got back about as fur as they could. Well, the guy with the whistle tooted it again, and the guys which wuz standin in a line started to run at the other gang. They wuz a funny little egg-shaped thing a lay- in on the ground an one feller stumbled over it an nocked it highern a kite. The fel- lers on the uther side had bin standin lookin kinda skeered, an that thing hit wun guy in the Stummick an that made em sore an yuh aut to seen the way they run at them other guys. Then bang-they cum together an arms, legs and heads wur jumbled in wun grand pile. The guy with the whistle pulled em apart but he couldn't do much wid em an bam-they were at each othertagin. The guy with the whistle kept tract cause I heered him holler four down and three to go, which ment that the other side had over half of em down. Wunce the Normal gang shuved the College bunch off the end of the pasture an then the College fellers shoved the Normal off the other end of the pasture. They kept it up jes as long as they cud and then, by galagers, they jes naturally had to quit. Some of the fellers wuz durned near undressed because of the way they had been shuved around. . I couldn't figur out which side had wun cause they both yelled an hollered an acted so happy that I gess neither side culd hav wun. The pepul on the yellar side wuz so tuckered out and so skeered they wuz goin to git whipped that they didn't make much fuss, but the guy with the whistle said that they had shuved one or two mor heads in the ground than the other side had. .. Well, both sides kinda whooped it up for a day or two, an then them College guys begin to shine up to the Normal gurls agin an the hatchet wuz buried for a while. But say-yuh kin talk about Kintucky's feudes an the family wars these yere high muckey- mucks git into-why they're regular Sunday School picnicks compared with this yere College and Normal hoe-down on Thanksgivin Day.
